EnterTheVoid Posted May 25, 2025 Posted May 25, 2025 A Quiet Operational Success That misleading narrative obscures a more consequential truth: despite Pakistani tactical successes, India appears to have largely achieved its stated objectives. On the opening day of strikes, the Indian Air Force (IAF) demonstrated a credible capacity to identify and destroy what New Delhi characterised as terrorist-linked infrastructure in Pakistani territory, employing stand-off weapons to deliver precision strikes at speed. In the following days, operations expanded in scope, penetrating Pakistan’s Chinese-supplied air defence network to target select forward airbases for the first time since the 1971 war. While losses were incurred, these must be evaluated against the scale and complexity of the mission – not simply tallied in isolation. The mere fact that the Indian Air Force could strike targets under defended conditions and undertake follow-on attacks demonstrates its capacity for coercive precision operations. https://www.rusi.org/explore-our-research/publications/commentary/calibrated-force-operation-sindoor-and-future-indian-deterrence raki05, rangeelaraja and coffee_rules 2 1

Operation Sindoor shot that logic out of the sky Air bases were hit not because of Pak drones. Those Asisguard drones were being neutralized before they could cause any major damage. It was only after ballistic missiles were fired at residential areas (non military) in Delhi and Amritsar (Golden Temple) was when we took things to the next level and fired Brahmos at their air bases.

Lone Wolf Posted May 25, 2025 Posted May 25, 2025 Brahmos certainly isn't a cost effective solution. That's why it was only used to take out high value Targets aka RYK airbase. Precision guided hammer even though imported is much cheaper. India's indigenous precision guided TARA went into trails a month ago. Jaguars and MKI will be equipped with those. We are rapidly improving when it comes to missile tech.

This is still a 3rd gen aircraft. God knows when we will get rid of that. Brahmos is damn expensive but it's fast and has precision strikes. Akash SAM and L70 production needs to be expanded up so that we can cover the entire Western & Eastern borders.

Jaguars are in process of upgradation since last year or so.. Besides they act as our nuclear bomber fleet.. spares aren't an issue. I get it is old and much maligned but without strategic bombers.. it has its usage. Until MK2 squadrons line up it will go beyond 2035. ravishingravi 1

Maintenance, parts, of all such varieties is a nightmare We have source code of Sukhois as of 2024... Can do any kind of upgradation & integration with it. Tejas programme is indigenous minus engine and some other technical stuff. It is expected to replace older Mig and Jaguars when sufficient numbers will be achieved. MIG act as interceptors meanwhile.. Navy uses Mig29k on our carriers. Rafale is silver bullet as of now. IAF has been a mess for long but hopefully we keep improving after these ops. Already massive improvement since that incident in 2019. raki05, coffee_rules and ravishingravi 1 2

jf1gp_1 Posted May 26, 2025 Posted May 26, 2025 What is the purpose of these 7 teams which have gone across countries ? Whom are they meeting and telling what ? WB is already planning to give them 20b
